Goddamn! Why have no one made a full-scale reconstruction of the Stone of Mora for the museums? It is practically as symbolically significant as the (fictional) stone where (the fictional) Merlin found his sword, the difference is that this one is a historical fact.

King-making stone replica: rapid prototyping! Scan the pieces, add them together in a computer and “print” the reproduction layer by layer with a plastic material. The sheen might be a bit off but the schoolchildren and tourists will have someting to see without travelling to the original stone fragments.

Martin, don’t worry about chaos.
If we have more than one candidate for being king, we build a Thunderdome next to the stone: “Two men enters, one man leaves!” Wait, that means Mel Gibson might win. I see the problem right there.
